Default Consolidate Data

You can use a DIR looping macro to open or create formulas for each workbook
desired to the next available row on the destination file.

Here is the basic idea for using DIR
Sub FindFilesToChangeSAS()' Bare bones version to test for DIR
Dim FN As String
FN = Dir(ThisWorkbook.Path & "\*.*")
Do Until FN = ""

MsgBox FN 'Name of each file in the directory(folder) displayed
'Do what is desired with the workbook

Loop
End Sub
